No need to make fun of me; I can't get enough of this meal!


paper, please put this recipe.

Overnight crème brûlée French toast is a delightful combination of the decadent French toast and the comforting crème brûlée. This dish elevates the traditional breakfast staple with a French touch. The custard may soak into the bread if you prepare it the night before, turning it into a lazy morning treat. This delicious treat is perfect for Christmas mornings, brunch gatherings, or any time you want to treat yourself.

Serve this French toast with your favorite toppings, such whipped cream, fresh berries, or warm maple syrup. To balance the flavors, try it with some crispy bacon or a mild arugula salad. The perfect way to end a meal is with a steaming mug of coffee or a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice.



 The night before, make 6 servings of French toast with crème brûlée.


Food Ingredients for the Recipe

Half a cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter

1 measured cup of packed brown sugar

light corn syrup, 2 tablespoons

thinly sliced brioche or challah bread (about 1/2 inch thick) from a single loaf

five large eggs

1/2 cup Half a cup of fat-free milk

a dash of vanilla extract

Not required: Orange liqueur or Grand Marnier, 1 teaspoon

Half a teaspoon of salt, if desired For caramelizing, 1/4 cup of granulated sugar is needed.

The Best Practices for Following

First thing to do: Heat the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until it melts. Whisk in the brown sugar and corn syrup until smooth and the corn syrup melts. Pour the mixture into a baking dish that measures 9 by 13 inches.

After that, evenly distribute the butter and brown sugar mixture onto a baking sheet. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs on top. Slice the bread to fit the meal if it's too large.


3. In a big basin, pour in the eggs, half-and-half, vanilla essence, salt, and Grand Marnier (if using). Beat with a whisk until well combined.


Lastly, distribute the egg mixture over the bread slices. The bread will soak up more custard if you press down lightly on it.

Set the baking dish in the fridge for at least eight hours, or perhaps overnight, covered with plastic.

Position the oven dial to 350°F, which is equivalent to 175°C. Following the removal of the plastic wrap, place the baking dish aside to cool to room temperature. The oven has to be preheated.

French toast should be baked for 35 to 40 minutes, or until golden and puffy, once the oven is heated. After a little while, put it down and let it cool off. For an additional special touch, sprinkle granulated sugar on top and use a heat torch to caramelize until it becomes a perfect brown and crispy.

Updates and Suggestions

Try adding a pinch of nutmeg and a tablespoon or two of cinnamon to the custard for a more seasonal twist. Try sandwiching cut apples or pears between two pieces of bread for a delicious variation. Substituting less brown sugar and butter will make it less sweet, while whole grain bread will give it more substance.
